My maternity shoot for my cousin had to be rescheduled due to sickness. Hopefully it will be this weekend. In the mean time I done some practice on acheiving a silhouette image and just wanted to share what I came up with.
I started practicing at around 3:00pm with no luck at all. No matter what settings and
compensation I used I just could not acheive a silhouette. My
subject was always overexposed or both subject and background underexposed. I now realise this was due to a
insufficient difference in light levels between my subject and background. It wasnt until a few hours later at around 5:30pm when it was much darker inside my home that I was able to create the silhouette I wanted. Below is just a practice image I wanted to share and of course get your valuable cc'ing. The exif info as follows (dont know how to include this in the photo?)
